Boundary Timer event unable to identify service task in second run intermittently

Dear All,

Boundary Timer event is unable to identify service task in second run intermittently. It works fine for some records but not for most of the records. Is there any configuration I need to do?

hi @mkgraiitr

Can you take a look at the Style Guide? It’ll help you understand how to format code and stack traces correctly and also help you create questions that are easy to understand and also easier to answer :slight_smile:

Also - can you explain more details of your setup.
Your version of camunda, database and if you’re running cluster?

I think problem looks clear now. We have postgreSQL DB and the two servers are connected to the same database. The camunda changes are there on one server and the second server doesn’t have the changes. So probably when timer triggers from Camunda engine, it cannot find the delegate in one server and fails. I will keep only one server, test it and update you.
